Neolithic Chinese Pottery

About the Item

Chinese Neolithic Period Vase Chinese pottery, objects made of clay and hardened by heat: earthenware, stoneware, and porcelain, particularly those made in China. Nowhere in the world has pottery assumed such importance as in China, and the influence of Chinese porcelain on later European pottery has been profound. The earliest evidence for art in any form in ancient China consists of crude cord-marked pottery and artifacts decorated with geometric designs found in Mesolithic sites in northern China and in the Guangdong-Guangxi regions. The dating for prehistoric culture in China is still very uncertain, but this material is probably at least 7,000 or 8,000 years old. Beyond their historical significance, these ancient pieces of Chinese pottery bring a warm richness to any home. They embody the spirit and skill of past generations, making them not only valuable collectors' items but also tangible links to the vast tapestry of human creativity. In adding a piece of Chinese pottery to one's home, one does not merely acquire an object of beauty but also a slice of history that enriches the space with a warmth and depth that only centuries of culture and tradition can impart.
